To be honest, Qiu Xiaobai didn't know why he fought so hard. Baidu search literature network, more good free reading.
Perhaps the most important point for the time being is that there is no clue about Prince Gig, so this is the best way to try, and it turns out that it has indeed been given such an opportunity.
A group of troops slowly marched from this alley, and with the permission of Second Lieutenant Silin, Wang Defa quickly found a horse for Qiu Xiaobai.
The tall body, jet-black mane, sturdy horses' hooves, like a stake when quiet, like thunder when moving, all the time showing people its own unparalleled physical strength, Qiu Xiaobai was fortunate to ride this black horse when the mount was not open, naturally full of joy.
The comfortable and pleasant sunlight sprinkled down from the shadows of the trees, Qiu Xiaobai enjoyed the surrounding scenery all the way, and followed Wang Defa all the way to go hand in hand, chatting about some thrilling things about the enemy, but there was no lack of joy.
After about ten minutes of marching, the surrounding mountains and soil gradually changed, and the green grass and trees on the mountains were no longer everywhere, and the dry and barren rocks and sandy soil slowly came into view.
A small courtyard in the middle of the barren mountains and sands was far and near, and the second lieutenant Si Lin, who led the team, also stopped at this time.
"What's going on, I remember that the first two months were still deserted," Wang Defa stopped talking, looking puzzled as he looked at the house that had suddenly been built on the originally barren land.
"I can't be mistaken, this house looks very old." Qiu Xiaobai looked at him with his gaze, which was really incredible. Baidu search literature network, more good free reading.
"Of course I can't be mistaken, it was a walk when I first joined the Long Corridor Legion, or did Second Lieutenant Silin take a few of us" Wang Defa retorted a few words to himself, and his eyes fell on the old signboard.
It is a very simple courtyard, so simple that most of the beams have been weathered.
The top of the wooden archway is covered with thick hay, and a few slightly straight cedar trees remove the branches, and build them together with each other, which is regarded as forming a signboard Zhujia Inn.
Inside the two open doors was a large inn, with bundles of firewood hanging by the outer wall, and tables filled with dusty guests.
"Master Jun, it's better to come in and sit down when you pass by here, and prepare some snacks and snacks for drinking, and invite all the military masters to come in for a while." A bloated female shopkeeper stood at the door with a paper fan and beckoned lightly to Lieutenant Silin.
Her appearance is really not ugly, it is probably only the size of a basin used by ordinary people to wash their hands, her rich body is covered with a full-length dark green patterned robe, there are no sleeves at her hands, revealing two fat and fleshy arms, and a few folds have been stretched out in the tighter places between her waist and abdomen, and it seems that this dress does not seem to fit well.
"Thank you for the invitation of the shopkeeper, the sun is very hot this afternoon, and I really need to drink two glasses of wine to relieve the heat." Second Lieutenant Silin's expression was a little moved, he raised his eyes to look at the guests seated in the door, his eyes seemed to be a little puzzled, and he then asked: "I don't know how there are so many guests in this desert for a while, is it not a trap deliberately set by me, so that I can't wait to fall into it."
"Where did the military master say, my Zhu family inn has been open here for more than ten years, and those guest officers who stayed in the hotel all appreciated the promenade silver group, and the concubine liked heroic stories when she was young, not to mention that I have always heard more about the prestige of your second lieutenant Silin, and I have been looking forward to seeing each other, and now God has opened our eyes to make us meet, and I can't say that I want to invite two jars of good wine." The proprietress shook the folding fan in her hand with a smile, beckoned a few guys, and ordered: "Go and prepare a few more bowls of tea, and by the way, let the dead ghost fry a few good dishes." ”
"The backyard of the house has prepared a horse fence, and please move a few steps to lead the horses to the backyard, I have instructed my subordinates to prepare tea, and please sit down and rest quickly." The proprietress arranged the matter and said with a smile.
"Second Lieutenant, it's impossible for so many guests to come out in this barren wilderness, I think it must be their disguise, maybe there's something shady," a centurion behind Silin whispered.
"Yes, second lieutenant, the situation is dangerous now, and we have to guard against it," said the other centurion.
"Lang Lang Qiankun is clear, where can there be two husbands said so sinister, now the boss lady regrets that I am waiting for a long time, we can't refuse like this, and the hot weather is not suitable for marching, so let's rest" Second Lieutenant Si Lin didn't seem to hear the advice of the two centurions, he stretched out his hand and waved, and the order was given, and then he smiled at the waiting boss lady: "Thank you for the kind invitation of the boss lady, since this is the case, then Lin is respectful and obedient." ”
Second Lieutenant Si Lin turned over and dismounted, put his spear on the horse, and made a fist towards the shopkeeper, and the man walked towards the door first.
"Let's lead the horses to the back of the stable, and then drink in the main hall, move faster" The first proposal did not seem to have any effect, and the centurion looked at the second lieutenant Si Lin who strode into the door in some surprise, and then turned to the soldiers and shouted a word, and then took the lead in leading Si Lin's horse to the back stable.
"I don't think this girl is kind, I guess we'll be in danger if we go in, maybe this lady will poison our food, and then make us into human meat, such a thing I've heard my mother talk about a long time ago." Wang Defa watched as the soldiers had begun to lead the horses to the backyard, and couldn't help muttering.
"I don't rule out this possibility, something must be wrong here, I think Second Lieutenant Silin may know something, we might as well go and see it first, and then we can adapt to the situation." Qiu Xiaobai nodded with a smile, looking at Wang Defa who was looking left and right with a worried face, a little speechless.
"By the way, there is another possibility, that is, they will also poison the wine, so what should I do When the time comes, I will pretend to be drunk and lie on the table, and when those strong men have bad intentions towards General Silin, I will stand up, so that I may be valued by the second lieutenant and give me the official position of a thousand-commander." Wang Defa turned over and dismounted, and walked with Qiu Xiaobai to the backyard with the crowd, and couldn't help but talk to himself.
"Then you will behave well then, if you save the life of Second Lieutenant Silin, then you will be given an official and a half-position or something, and when the time comes, you will be added to the rank and knighted, and you will be able to marry any beautiful daughter-in-law." Qiu Xiaobai tied the reins of the horse's back to the post of the stable, still deciding not to hit his self-confidence.
Although this is just an intelligent NC, in his eyes, there is still flesh and blood and soul.
